While escaping her sinking ship, a pirate encounters a mermaid who wants to know the stories behind her tattoos. What follows is a sweet nautical love story.

Sam of Charmingly Antiquated made this lovely, wordless comic. Head over to her Tumblr to give it a read (and follow her for more comics and artwork), although it may be slightly NSFW if your work frowns upon non-sexual depictions of naked, cartoon mermaids.
